10 sandwiches we'd trek across town for

It’s too cold for cold cuts. This time of year, we stick to a strict hot-sandwiches-only policy; and our quest for the meltiest, most decadent meals between two slices has led us all over the city. Here, ten steamy sandwiches you should try before spring.

Gold Coast

He had us at “pizza dough sandwich.” Chef Tony Mantuano’s calzone-like creations ($11) at Bar Toma come stuffed with meatballs, chicken or veggies, and they take on a smoky finish after being baked in the restaurant’s wood-burning oven. 110 E. Pearson St.

Lakeview

We’d eat breakfast at any time of day if it were Crosby’s Kitchen’s classically great fried-egg sandwich with cheddar cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato and red onions on soft marble rye. 3455 N. Southport Ave.
